Happy Christmas from Giant Rhinos In Space

Happy Christmas from Pip and Annie! These characters are from Giant Rhinos In Space, I'm hoping to work a lot more on this project in the new year.

Character Designs

These are character designs for a short story comic I'm hoping to find time to draw draw next year. They are college friends. They are all fun to draw because of their over exaggerated features.

Inktober 1 of 3

Inktober is a challenge to practice ink drawings throughout October. I was too busy with printing new comics and going to events to take part during October but I think the practice is valuable so I decided to Inktober in November instead. I coloured some of my favourite illustrations.
